"Building a new home on the East Coast while living in Los Angeles several years ago was arduous at best, but one of the highlights of our "moving experience" was our association with Unusual Designs' Anne Fitch."

"Anne not only had the ability to listen to and identify with any concepts that we were considering, she also embellished our ideas and polished them, which produced a far more dramatic and pleasing effect than would have been the result had we managed this huge undertaking in any other way. Her knowledge of the newest products on the market, exacting the greatest use of fabrics and painting techniques and colors as well as dealing with a large palette of creative personalities are skills few people can master. In an area where change is difficult for many to embrace, Anne indeed is "The Master." Her design expertise, product knowledge and commitment to a challenging construction project, along with the willingness of her Unusual Designs team to always go the extra mile, can be seen in every room of our home. We are extremely grateful for having found them!"

"You truly have an “eye” for color and style. We are so pleased with the outcome of your suggestions. Our window treatments, headboard and rugs add just the right touches to our décor. We have had many compliments from friends and family who have visited with us… they never fail to say how beautiful the “finishing touches” enhance our existing furnishings.
Not only do you have a flare for color and style, but you are the consummate professional. What a joy for us that you returned phone calls and arrive at the time scheduled!!!! You are always so pleasant and wear a beautiful smile… not to mention your infinite patience."

"We have worked with Anne Fitch on many projects throughout our home. Anne has been able to focus on our personal tastes and expectations with ease and enthusiasm. She was exceptionally perceptive, even at the start, of our working with her. We have truly enjoyed our newly designed projects and I am sure we will for years to come. We would highly recommend Anne Fitch as your Interior Designer."

"We received a flier from Andrea, offering an interior design consultation."

"We were new homeowners and wanted help on curtains throughout the house. Our first appointment was scheduled for 10 am. As the clock struck 10, our doorbell rang. There she was, ready to work. She considered our paint selections, fabrics and artwork as she took careful notes and measurements and promised to have plans and fabrics for us shortly. And she did. So accurately had she judged our taste and our lifestyle that most of her initial selections were our final choices. On the date that our window treatments were installed, she stayed until the installer completed his task to make certain everything was done to her satisfaction.
We also belonged to a newcomers group in our community. After seeing our house with its new window treatments, several members called Andrea. Now we all have “curtains by Andrea.” To sum up Andrea Fitzgerald, she is: punctual, careful, imaginative, professional. Just what we wanted!"

"Having built our dream house, we were overwhelmed trying to decorate it."

"We had tried several decorators but could not find what we wanted; everything was so "Colonial." Then, we hit the jackpot when Suzette found Unusual Designs, Inc. Upon entering the showroom, she knew immediately that Anne Fitch was the designer we were looking for.
Now that the work is completed, our home truly is "Our Castle." Anne Fitch is truly amazing as she foresaw our every need. She is committed to her clients and dedicated to excellence. She made our home look like who we are."

"Appointments were attended on time and phone calls were returned promptly. We were so pleased working with Anne for our home decorating needs that we asked her to help us update my husband's medical office with excellent results. Not only does Unusual Designs offer the latest in fabrics, carpet and art, the shop itself has many unusual accessories and unique pieces to compliment a home or office."

"I wanted to thank you again for helping with our home redecorating project."

"The results were beyond our expectations!
We asked for a look that was inviting, warm, and not over-the-top as we've seen with some decorators. You hit the nail on the head. As you know, we tend to be very conservative and reluctant to step outside of our comfort level. You were patient with us and reminded us repeatedly that it was a process and not something that we could create in a day. That first step was a leap of faith but oh what a great step it was! The final results are exactly what we wanted.
We now have a "WOW" factor that friends and family love! It's fun to watch their smiles and hear the compliments as they walk from room to room and delight in the metamorphism!
Thank you again for being so good at what you do. We've enjoyed tremendously working with you and look forward to recommending you any chance we get."

"Last year I decided to renovate the downstairs of my home."

"I had never worked with an interior decorator before so I asked my daughter's decorator, who works in Northern Virginia, for a recommendation. She gave me Anne Fitch's name. I called Anne and we began working together. Anne spent a great deal of time with me to find out what I wanted my home to look like. I wanted to create an Arts and Crafts style home, reminiscent of the home of my paternal grandmother, with whom I had spent many happy times. With Anne's help my wish is now real. All of the people who worked in my home did excellent work and cleaned up when they were finished. The whole experience was wonderful and I look forward to working with Anne again in the near future."

"Last year we decided to use some professional assistance to aid us with the finishing touches to the remodeling work we had recently completed."

Show More/Hide

"We had bought a home, originally built in 1958, with plans on remodeling the kitchen, flooring, and backdoor entrance area. Once the remodeling was complete we needed to make a few changes, the existing furniture and decorations had been collected over many years. We contacted Anne Fitch whom had come highly recommended. We spent several meetings with Anne and ended up modernizing several rooms from top to bottom. Curtains, rugs, furniture, and decorations. Everything ended up coming out perfect! Neighbors and previous owners had the opportunity to tour the house, all were extremly amazed at the transformation, and we have received nothing but compliments since. The whole entire experience was a very very positive one, we highly reccommend Anne and will definitly work with her in the future."

"I could not be more thrilled with the work Anne Fitch with Unusual Designs has done for our home!"

"She has designed custom window coverings for several rooms, each unique in their own way with embellishments and trims yet cohesive with our traditional decor and lifestyle. The kitchen and family room were our first project, the end result being spectacular and resulted in several more design projects! I am so glad I listened to her recommendation to wallpaper the foyer. The richness of the colors in the paper and difference in texture to paint has added a depth and dimension I did not anticipate! The foyer’s window treatment is the crown jewel for this space. Fabrics of different type, color and texture were used in the design. The colors of the paper blend perfectly with the fabrics, all tied nicely together with oversized tassels and trim. The sunroom was our indulgence. We added two small upholstered barrel chairs from Unusual Designs that coordinate well with the window treatments done in purple with turquoise banding with multi colored trim. Gorgeous! Everyone that comes to our home comments how beautiful it is!
I highly recommend Unusual Designs for any home décor needs -- window coverings and treatments, wallpapers, custom furniture coverings, home décor items and more! Anne is very professional, on time, and makes sure the installation is perfect. She listened, saw how we lived, and made recommendations that fit perfectly with our lifestyle and budget! We could not be happier!"

"My husband and I had noticed year after year, at the Parade of Homes, that we always admired the work of Anne Fitch with Unusual Designs."

"When we decided to build a home, we were very excited that she agreed to help us with the interior design. She really listened to what we wanted, and helped us work through the countless choices in an efficient yet thorough manner -- allowing it to be a fun and easy process. She is amazingly talented in every aspect of her work . Anne truly has a gift for "putting it all together" from the colors, to the layout design, to every detail, for a final product which was much better than we ever could have imagined. She is flexible, organized, responsive and made it an absolute pleasure. I can honestly say that I would want to use her for any interior design project in the future and could not have asked for a better experience or outcome."
